BK-Y2560

A collection of sketches and designs of various Japanese architectural carvings, chiefly of Japanese mythical creatures. These sketches would be transferred onto wood an artisan was carving, and then they would shave the wood down into a three-dimensional carving. Architectural implements like the ones drawn here would typically be seen right under the edge of a roof's ridge.

 The collection of sketches features many images of Gegyo 懸魚,  Kibana 木鼻 Baku (nightmare eater), as well as Houou 鳳凰 (Phoenix), Shishi 獅子 (lion dog) and Dragons 龍.

(architectural wood carvings not included)
